related news.. "Cabletron To Debut ATM Switch Line (06/01/98; 4:31 p.m. ET) By Monua Janah, InformationWeek Cabletron Systems is expected to introduce this week an ATM switch line that includes a high-end LAN device called the SmartSwitch 9500, sources said. This move will follow price cuts last week on the GigaSwitch ATM that was inherited in the acquisition of Digital Equipment's networking unit last year. The Rochester, N.H., company also announced plans to enhance the GigaSwitch line. The price of 622-megabit-per-second line cards for the GigaSwitch ATM that support the multimode fiber version was reduced by more than one-third to $9,675. The single-mode fiber version's price was slashed more than 40 percent, to $11,495. A firmware upgrade slated for this month will improve the GigaSwitch's ability to handle WAN traffic and to manage the switch via a Web browser. In September, a 622-Mbps line card with full redundancy will ship and an upgrade will support the Private Network-to-Network Interface, an industry standard for switch-routing that allows interoperability with other vendors' products.
